He continued: “One of the main things, for me, is that he (Matt) seems genuine which is what I look for. He said that we aren’t the biggest club in the world, but we want to get promoted.

He said: “I know two or three players that I’ve played with before. I’ve done some research on the club and I’ve played against them as well, so I know a fair bit.”

“I’ve been around for a bit, so I know my way around League One and Two and slightly higher, so it stands me in good stead.”
